Dynamo Player with BIM Interoperability Tools

Hi everyone,

I’m encountering an issue with Dynamo Player in Revit, and I’m hoping someone can provide some insight. It seems that I can’t get Dynamo Player to work properly when the Interoperability Tools add-in is installed.

Here are the specific problems I’m facing:

  • After selecting my input in Dynamo, I can’t see or access it in Dynamo Player.
  • Simultaneously, I receive a warning stating that ‘Dynamo does not work with an add-in’ (the message seems to be referring to the Interoperability Tools).

I’m unsure if these two issues are related, but the timing makes me wonder if there is some conflict between Dynamo and the Interoperability Tools add-in.

Has anyone experienced something similar or have suggestions on what I can do to resolve this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hey there,
I have both Interoperability Tools and Dynamo installed, with no problems on my end. Have you checked to make sure you have all the latest updates?

Hi, yes
Everything is up to date.

Are you able to use dynamo to fill in parameters created by the Interoperability tools?

Which build of Revit are you in?
What packages are you using in Dynamo?
What other add-ins do you have installed in Revit?
Can you provide a screenshot and Revit journal of the issue?
Which version of BIM Interoperability Tools do you have installed?

FYI…

The Addin file lives here:

C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Revit\Addins[Your Revit Version]

It is called AIT.addin, if you temporarily remove it, does Dynamo work again?

Yes I use Dynamo to update a lot of the Interop info, once the interop has done most of the heavy lifting. Mostly it is using its own Revit shared parameters, generating data from the settings and element data, so you can update them. Zones are the only thing which are a little more tricky as they use Extensible Storage.

Hope that is useful,

Mark

Hi Mark,
I have attempted to do this but the connection between Dynamo and Revit breaks

Hi Jacob,
I am using Revit 2024. I only have clockwork installed at the moment. Is there a recommendation to make Dynamo work smoother?
Below is a snapshot of the error:

The interoperability tool version is 9.2.2

Looking forward to hearing back from you

Many thanks!
